An object may be categorized upon distribution of the object from a sender system to a recipient system. The object may be assigned to at least one recipient category in a recipient category hierarchy according to a first predefined mapping from a sender category hierarchy to the recipient category hierarchy. The object is initially assigned to a sender category in the sender category hierarchy. There is applied to the object a second predefined mapping from the recipient category hierarchy to the sender category hierarchy. It is determined whether the first and second predefined mappings converge. If the first and second predefined mappings do not converge, there may be executed a rule-based reassignment algorithm to make the first and second predefined mappings converge.

Categorizing an object

The present invention provides methods and systems for automatic translation code generation. The client transmits a data object message comprising the current data model of the client to the server. The server automatically generates a new translation code based on the current data model of the client. The newly generated translation code may then be used to convert the data in the server into a data format required by the client. If the current data model of the client changes, the translation code on the server may be automatically adapted according to the changed data format and data on the server is converted with the adapted translation code.
